N2 - In Australia, most communities have been affected by an emergency or hazardous incident at some point in their history. Emergency events range from individual accidents to the effects of bushfires, floods or the currently occurring pandemic. The people who manage these events (emergency managers) require knowledge, skills and abilities (human capacities). These human capacities allow the emergency manager to lead the prevention of, preparation for, response to and recovery from emergency events. This study examined aspects of the emergency manager and exposes education, training and experience as a concept in human-capacity building.
